The College Football Playoff Committee (a not-so wholly-owned subsidiary of Mickey Mouse Inc) has spent this past weekend torturing numbers and assaulting airport-hotel quality catering, just to deliver to us our weekly dose of pre-Thanksgiving bile induction.
It’s a new top-25, in our last year in a world where only 12 (or really 11) matter. This is how it shook out last week:
But where does the math place the Tide? The algorithmic Magic 8 balls seem to think a lot of them.
We will update this with appropriate graphics once Week Two is out, but for now, tell us in the comments who is gonna get dissed, and who will get pissed.

Update
As promised, the new top 25.
Roll Tide!
Roll Tide!
ROLL TIDE!!!
Put at 1, you cowards!!!
LSU dropped to 21. Ole Miss and SCar ahead of them with 3 losses
Indiana dropped 5 sports on a bye week LMAO. Meltdown inc
Number 3 ain’t bad. Anyone else find it funny that the Utes are at 2. Two Utes.
Well now I guess I do.
I would not mind a quarterfinal with Tejas. Arch is just Sam Leavitt with better branding, and CKD is 2-0 vs Sark.
Tejas won’t be there. The Aggie superweapon is charged up from all the losing and is going to vaporize them
When did Aggie become Pitt?
Never Pitt has won a title since the invention of television
From your keyboard to God’s ears, but I’ll believe it when I see it. Death. Taxes. Tejas beating aTm like a rented mule.
Color me surprised. Did not see that coming.
Now that I’ve slept on it and read a few meltdowns, my random two cents to fandom outside of Tuscaloosa:
So you weren’t happy with faceless computers and wanted a human element, now you complain about the human element. Human element can be coerced, impacted, or driven by a narrative. The CFP Ranking isn’t feel-good; this is business and ratings-driven.
